[quote=Anonymous]90s were wonderful but I'm in my mid-fifties.  Had a good job and loved living in DC.  Though you didn't go past 16th Street in NW in those days.  Going to the old 9:30 club or the Insect Club was taking risk enough.  Loved dancing at Fifteen Minutes (lines that bathroom were so long we would go over the Mayflower and then come back avoiding the prostitutes on the way), early day Heaven,  the Bayou and going to all those tiny movie theaters all over.  Zorba's was cheap for starting the night out - not like today.

Still had Marion Barry and weeks when they just did not pick up the garbage.  Parking was still insane but the ticketed like crazy back then.

Discrimination and harassment were real.  It was just an accepted thing that you had to watch it with certain supervisors/clients.  Had to wear suits that were skirts and panty hose.  Ugh.

Music was great - the early days of the HFestival were wonderful.  Loved Nirvana but grunge did ruin alternative music.

So glad we didn't have phones!  I remember that I used to give people lessons on how to drive Rock Creek because no one could figure it out.  [/quote]
